About the Role
Austin Radiological Association (ARA) is seeking Pediatric Radiologists to join our growing pediatric section in Austin, Texas. We are welcoming candidates with interests in Pediatric General/Body Radiology, Pediatric Interventional Radiology, or a combination of both. This is an exceptional opportunity to join a close-knit team of pediatric specialists providing advanced imaging and procedural care to children throughout Central Texas. With more than 90% pediatric cases, you can maintain a true pediatric focus while benefiting from the clinical variety, resources, and subspecialty support of one of the country's most established radiology practices. Based at Dell Children's Medical Center, our pediatric team cares for a broad and complex patient population, including patients from throughout Central Texas and beyond. The hospital is home to the region's only Level I Pediatric Trauma Center and Level IV NICU, creating a sophisticated and diverse clinical environment for pediatric radiologists.

Pediatric Interventional Radiology
For physicians with a passion for procedures, this opportunity provides access to a growing pediatric procedural environment supported by an experienced pediatric radiology team and dedicated procedural resources. Pediatric IR candidates will have opportunities to participate in advanced pediatric image-guided procedures while collaborating closely with pediatric specialists and multidisciplinary care teams. The practice also includes a pediatric-specific procedural APP, providing additional support for the pediatric interventional service.

You won't be joining a general radiology group that occasionally reads pediatric cases. You'll join a dedicated pediatric radiology section with a clinical focus of more than 90% pediatric imaging. The section is based at Dell Children's Medical Center and provides specialized diagnostic and interventional services to children across Central Texas and beyond. Dell Children's is a 248-bed freestanding pediatric facility serving a 46-county area and is home to the region's only Level I Pediatric Trauma Center and Level IV NICU. The practice also serves additional pediatric facilities and outpatient imaging centers throughout Austin.

There are also opportunities to participate in leadership, education, research, and multidisciplinary clinical initiatives. Whether you want to remain primarily clinical or build a larger academic presence, there is flexibility to shape your involvement around your interests.
